Description

The Roland System-500 Series SYS-505 VCF Multi-Mode Filter Eurorack Analog Synth Module is New Delivered to all areas of the UK using our roadie delivery service.

Vintage-style modular and Eurorack synths are coming back in a big way. Contemporary music trends have seen more and more musicians turn to the analog-inspired sounds of old, and manufacturers have responded in kind. Roland are at the forefront of this trend, producing faithful reissues of some of their most popular releases in recent years and satisfying our renewed love for classic-sounding synth technology. 

For 2018, they've decided to keep up the momentum with additions to their System-500 series. These compact modules are inspired by the legendary System-700 and System 100M series, aiming to provide never-ending modular synth fun in a handy, budget-friendly format! 

The System-500 505

Inject the sound of the Roland SH-5’s revered filter section into your modular rig. The Roland SH-5 is one of the most sought after monosynths in history. Its dual architecture was deep and sounded massive. It also happened to have one of the most distinguished filters of any monosynth in history. Combining a multi-mode filter with a band-pass filter, it produced a sound that has propelled it to “favourite filter ever” territory for many. In stark contrast to the traditional Ladder filter design, the SH-5’s filter maintained its bass response with a meaty resonance growl. With the SYS-505, Roland and Malekko have brought this highly-coveted filter, in all its sonic glory, to the Eurorack format. With switchable outputs, built-in VCAs, and CV control of cutoff, resonance, this dual filter gives you two different vintage filter characters in a flexible and compact 16hp module.

Stuff About Roland

Roland, based in Japan, is one of the true giants of electronic music history. They created icons like the TR-808, TR-909, TB-303, Juno and Jupiter synths, each of which helped shape entire genres.

Stuff About Semi-modular & Desktop Synths Synths & Workstations

Semi-modular and desktop synths within the synths and workstations category offer hands-on sound design and powerful creative control in compact formats. Semi-modular synths encourage experimentation through patching while remaining playable without a full modular setup, while desktop synths deliver deep synthesis without a built-in keyboard. Combined with workstation-style tools for sequencing and composition, these instruments are ideal if you want flexible, space-efficient ways to design sounds, build patterns and develop complete musical ideas.

Stuff About Utility

The Important stuff

Analog — Analogue is sound generation based on physical electronic circuits such as oscillators, filters, and amplifiers rather than digital processing. It produces continuously variable signals with natural drift, saturation, and harmonic character, giving sounds a distinctive warmth and movement. Analogue instruments are valued for their hands-on control, immediacy, and expressive response in both studio and live performance environments.. Eurorack — Eurorack is a modular synthesis format with standardised dimensions, power connections, and signal levels. Eurorack systems are built from individual modules mounted in cases, allowing users to create highly customisable instruments tailored to specific sound design and performance needs.. Module — A module is a self-contained unit designed to perform a specific function within a larger system. Modules are commonly used in modular and Eurorack setups, where each unit handles tasks such as sound generation, modulation, filtering, or control, allowing systems to be built and expanded piece by piece..
